Why does the amount on my 1099G/INT form from Virginia not match my Virginia refund from last year? The amount preloaded from my previous year's filing with Turbotax (the actual refund amount) is different from the form that was sent.

It isn't always dollar for dollar. Please see the information in this Help article.

Report last year’s state or local tax refund, and we’ll figure out if it’s taxable or not.

If all three of the following are true, your refund counts as taxable income:

You itemized deductions last year, instead of taking the standard deduction
You claimed state and local income taxes (not general sales taxes)
Claiming the deduction helped you increase your federal refund or lower your tax bill

Even when your refund is taxable, it may not be the entire amount. It depends on how much the deduction affected your refund or tax bill. Just answer a few simple questions about last year’s refund, and we’ll calculate the taxable amount for you.

Hello

I just got off the phone with Virginia Tax Dept. about my 1099G . I have a discrepancy of $220.00 for reporting on my 2019 taxes. It's the Relief Act Payment of 2018. I still have to list it as a full refund.

Hello. I had the exact same difference on my 2019 1099-G from Virginia (vs. what my refund was in 2019) - $220. Thanks for info.

Virginia had a tax relief refund last year. You received an additional refund on top of your regular refund. See 2019 Virginia Tax Relief Refund

New Virginia Tax Laws for July 1, 2019. ... Refunds for Certain Taxable Year 2018 Return Filers: Taxpayers who file their Virginia individual income taxes by midnight on July 1, 2019, could be eligible for a Tax Relief Refund of up to $110 for an individual filer ($220 for a married couple filing jointly.)
